I dont think that I'll be getting anywhere near max with the bullets I'll be casting. These will all be paper plinking loads.
I load copper jacket for man and beast.

Grainger has a blow out on lead free solder, it's like 97% tin for under $7 a pound. If you order on line shipping is free. Once it is gone, it's gone.

I use the turkey fryer/dutch oven for alloying and castin ingots. Then I use a Lee bottom pour pot for doing my bullets.

For loading data, I use the 47th edition of the Lyman Reloading guide. It is better than most of the others.

You don't want to deal with Zinc, the fumes are not good for you and they make terrible bullets when you can get the alloy to fill the mold.
